Nigel Pearson was left to sarcastically question whether there had been a rule change after Bristol City were denied a number of penalties in their FA Cup draw with Swansea.
The hosts fell behind through Rob Atkinson's glaring error in the 15th minute when he scuffed a pass into the path of Liam Cullen inside the area. He squared the ball for Joel Piroe who could simply tap into an empty net.
It gave the Robins a mountain to climb and in truth, they were fortunate to reach the break just one behind. Swansea cut through City's midfield with Joe Allen and Oliver Cooper enjoying far too much space to dictate the play.
